Efficacy of Above- Versus Below-Cuff Lidocaine Injection Via Double-Cuff Endotracheal Tube in Reducing Extubation-Related Coughing in Neurosurgical Patients
Administration of lidocaine above or below the cuff of a double-cuff endotracheal tube during neurosurgical extubation effectively reduces the incidence of coughing. The above-cuff technique demonstrated the most pronounced benefit in suppressing extubation-related coughing and improving postoperative comfort.
